Default what temperature do I heat plastisol transfers on
Hi

I have just bought some plastisol transfer paper and printed my design onto it.

My question is this..... What heat do I need to get to to press?

Thanks
James

Generally, 8-10 seconds at 375F. But you will probably have to play around with that depending on how you made and semi-cured your transfers.
